Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that the admissions made by Dr. M.G.R. Educational and Research Institute for the 2nd batch of MBBS course in the academic year 2009-10 were unauthorized under Section 3 of the University Grants Commission Act, 1956. The Court held that while the admissions were invalid, it would not set them aside to avoid adverse consequences for the students, instead directing the Institute to address the situation appropriately. The decision emphasized the importance of regulatory compliance in educational admissions.
